...caused by what the Catholic Church itself would consider euthanasia. She bases this conclusion on her medical expertise and her own observations of the ailing pontiff on television, as well as press reports and a subsequent book by John Paul's personal physician. The failure to insert a feeding tube into the patient until just a few days before he died accelerated John Paul's death, Pavanelli concludes. Moreover, Pavanelli says she believes that the Pope's doctors dutifully explained the situation to him, and thus she surmises that it was the pontiff himself who likely refused the feeding tube...

...those who would call this MTV cartoon the boob tube at its most puerile, I have but one rejoinder: You said boob. This show's fart-knocking, frog-smashing anarchy alone might have put it on the list, but B&B was so much more. It was a surreal comedy ("I am the great Cornholio!"). It was one of TV's great inside critiques, peeling back the MTV fantasy of unattainable cool and personifying the sugar-buzzed idiot children who paid the channel's bills.
